The Grab Specialist - Product information

34 Taglines The Tagline is made to hold a grab steady regardless of boom angle while the grab and its load are suspended in air. The Tagline’s operation is completely automatic after installation. The Tagline operates on a coil spring system that maintains constant, positive tension on a grab. The unit mounts on a crane boom and consists of a cable reel, cable wire, two spring-loaded cylinders and a bell guide fairlead. The fairlead requires no sheaves, pins or lubrication. Depending on the size and weight, the taglines can be executed in: - Single Barrel - Double Barrel - Triple Barrel Deck towers As an alternative to the crane accessories TGS manufactures, Deck Towers that guide the electrical power cable from the ship or generator to the grab and keep the cable under constant tension. These machines are easy to place on deck by strong mag- nets, fully self-supporting. Sometimes when ships are being chartered it is not allowed to mount any accessories on the ships cranes. The Deck Towers in this case will offer you a good alternative.
